在SQL Server中实现这一点的一种方法是将表内容返回为XML（对于XML原始），将结果转换为字符串，然后用“，”替换标记。

我们可以使用RECUSRSIVITY、WITH CTE、union ALL，如下所示

declare @mytable as table(id int identity(1,1), str nvarchar(100))
insert into @mytable values('Peter'),('Paul'),('Mary')

declare @myresult as table(id int,str nvarchar(max),ind int, R# int)

;with cte as(select id,cast(str as nvarchar(100)) as str, cast(0 as int) ind from @mytable
union all
select t2.id,cast(t1.str+',' +t2.str as nvarchar(100)) ,t1.ind+1 from cte t1 inner join @mytable t2 on t2.id=t1.id+1)
insert into @myresult select *,row_number() over(order by ind) R# from cte

select top 1 str from @myresult order by R# desc

如果您使用的是SQL Server 2017或Azure，请参阅Mathieu Renda的回答。

当我试图连接两个具有一对多关系的表时，我也遇到了类似的问题。在SQL2005中，我发现XMLPATH方法可以非常容易地处理行的连接。

如果有一个名为STUDENTS的表

SubjectID       StudentName
----------      -------------
1               Mary
1               John
1               Sam
2               Alaina
2               Edward

我期望的结果是：

SubjectID       StudentName
----------      -------------
1               Mary, John, Sam
2               Alaina, Edward

我使用了以下T-SQL：

SELECT Main.SubjectID,
       LEFT(Main.Students,Len(Main.Students)-1) As "Students"
FROM
    (
        SELECT DISTINCT ST2.SubjectID, 
            (
                SELECT ST1.StudentName + ',' AS [text()]
                FROM dbo.Students ST1
                WHERE ST1.SubjectID = ST2.SubjectID
                ORDER BY ST1.SubjectID
                FOR XML PATH (''), TYPE
            ).value('text()[1]','nvarchar(max)') [Students]
        FROM dbo.Students ST2
    ) [Main]

如果您可以在开头插入逗号并使用子字符串跳过第一个逗号，那么您可以以更紧凑的方式执行相同的操作，这样就不需要执行子查询：

SELECT DISTINCT ST2.SubjectID, 
    SUBSTRING(
        (
            SELECT ','+ST1.StudentName  AS [text()]
            FROM dbo.Students ST1
            WHERE ST1.SubjectID = ST2.SubjectID
            ORDER BY ST1.SubjectID
            FOR XML PATH (''), TYPE
        ).value('text()[1]','nvarchar(max)'), 2, 1000) [Students]
FROM dbo.Students ST2

以下是实现这一目标的完整解决方案：

-- Table Creation
CREATE TABLE Tbl
( CustomerCode    VARCHAR(50)
, CustomerName    VARCHAR(50)
, Type VARCHAR(50)
,Items    VARCHAR(50)
)

insert into Tbl
SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','BREAKFAST','Milk'
union SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','BREAKFAST','Bread'
union SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','BREAKFAST','Egg'
union SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','LUNCH','Rice'
union SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','LUNCH','Fish Curry'
union SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','LUNCH','Lessy'
union SELECT 'C0002','JOSEPH','BREAKFAST','Bread'
union SELECT 'C0002','JOSEPH','BREAKFAST','Jam'
union SELECT 'C0002','JOSEPH','BREAKFAST','Tea'
union SELECT 'C0002','JOSEPH','Supper','Tea'
union SELECT 'C0002','JOSEPH','Brunch','Roti'

-- function creation
GO
CREATE  FUNCTION [dbo].[fn_GetItemsByType]
(   
    @CustomerCode VARCHAR(50)
    ,@Type VARCHAR(50)
)
RETURNS @ItemType TABLE  ( Items VARCHAR(5000) )
AS
BEGIN

        INSERT INTO @ItemType(Items)
    SELECT  STUFF((SELECT distinct ',' + [Items]
         FROM Tbl 
         WHERE CustomerCode = @CustomerCode
            AND Type=@Type
            FOR XML PATH(''))
        ,1,1,'') as  Items



    RETURN 
END

GO

-- fianl Query
DECLARE @cols AS NVARCHAR(MAX),
    @query  AS NVARCHAR(MAX)

select @cols = STUFF((SELECT distinct ',' + QUOTENAME(Type) 
                    from Tbl
            FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE
            ).value('.', 'NVARCHAR(MAX)') 
        ,1,1,'')

set @query = 'SELECT CustomerCode,CustomerName,' + @cols + '
             from 
             (
                select  
                    distinct CustomerCode
                    ,CustomerName
                    ,Type
                    ,F.Items
                    FROM Tbl T
                    CROSS APPLY [fn_GetItemsByType] (T.CustomerCode,T.Type) F
            ) x
            pivot 
            (
                max(Items)
                for Type in (' + @cols + ')
            ) p '

execute(@query) 

这对我有用（SQL Server 2016）：

SELECT CarNamesString = STUFF((
         SELECT ',' + [Name]
            FROM tbl_cars
            FOR XML PATH('')
         ), 1, 1, '')

还有一个针对MySQL的解决方案（因为该页面显示在Google for MySQL中）：

SELECT [Name],
       GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT [Name]  SEPARATOR ',')
       FROM tbl_cars

来自MySQL文档。

首先，您应该声明一个表变量并用表数据填充它，然后，使用WHILE循环，逐个选择行并将其值添加到nvarchar（max）变量中。

    Go
    declare @temp table(
        title nvarchar(50)
    )
    insert into @temp(title)
    select p.Title from dbo.person p
    --
    declare @mainString nvarchar(max)
    set @mainString = '';
    --
    while ((select count(*) from @temp) != 0)
    begin
        declare @itemTitle nvarchar(50)
        set @itemTitle = (select top(1) t.Title from @temp t)
    
        if @mainString = ''
        begin
            set @mainString = @itemTitle
        end
        else
        begin
            set @mainString = concat(@mainString,',',@itemTitle)
        end
    
        delete top(1) from @temp
    
    end
    print @mainString
